Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Cranberry Fluff Salad.
Step 1
Begin by mixing the chopped cranberries with the granulated sugar in a large bowl. This step is crucial as it allows the cranberries to release their natural juices and sweeten up beautifully. Cover the bowl and let it chill in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours, or overnight if you can wait! This waiting period enhances the flavors and gives the cranberries time to soften.
Step 2
Once you're ready to assemble your fluff, take the cranberry mixture out of the fridge. You'll notice how the sugar has worked its magic, creating a lovely syrup. Now, gently fold in the thawed whipped topping, crushed pineapple, miniature marshmallows, and chopped walnuts. Stir carefully to combine everything without losing the fluffiness of the whipped topping. The result should be a colorful, creamy mixture that looks as good as it tastes!
Step 3
Transfer your cranberry fluff salad to a serving dish and give it a little time in the fridge to chill before serving. This dish is perfect for potlucks, holiday gatherings, or just as a sweet treat to enjoy any time of the year. Enjoy the delightful blend of flavors and textures in every bite!
